not too often you see someone able to color tattoos right in photoshop. nice

i've been studying drawing tattoos for a while now. i have a few out there that people have gotten including one whole sleeve.

nice to see another tattoo enthusiast on this board.

cool tattoos but i think you should slightly improve the quality of the first one because it looks a bit blurry

Hi there Tom!

Sweet designs. The bird design is better as well as the colourings but I like the red raddish design (Is raddish=beet?) I dunno I just like that, and I think its kinda rare to see vegetables as tattoe :applause: So its cool:cool:

!!!More vegetables ha..ha..ha..!!!!

See ya:wavey:

Hey Tom I hope your not forgetting to do the designs we are planning ya.

Woah, the mom tatoo is lovely inappropriate! :love: A present every mother should love this xmas!, and the drops of the pearls collar (i dont know the commercial name) is the sickest sign of your madness! A tatoo from you is a portable work of art. :beer:

Hey dudes and dudettes...need some input ´bout my Inkwork...:bounce:

raden
12-22-2002, 11:03 PM
Hi there Tom!

Your inkwork is cool:thumsup:
Like I said before you've got style. Those hard edgy lines.

Now I'm curious about you doing photoshoping with collage/montage/and multylayering with photos. I see you got rich imagination from your madhatter/humpty in the forrest. So I wonder if multylayerring photos would works okay with your hardedgylines style.

Go..go..go..try it :drumrock:

PS: just wondering, you give 'it' to dad also? :p

Tommy Lee
12-22-2002, 11:06 PM
Hm...maybe I´ll try. And if ya look closer ya´ll see its a cigar and not a dildo...the color will clear it.

Thx dude:beer:

Hey I have been into tattoo's for a while now. A studio down the street from me buy's my stuff all the time. You should check in on cashing some of those in for money or tatt's maybe. Usually free tatts are worth more than money.... Good luck.

Put some tribals( I'm looking for some good ones)

jeroentje
12-25-2002, 10:08 AM
Tribals? Nah, why you want a tribal? There's so much more...
If I ever decide to have a tattoo it'll be a Tintin&Snowy on my arm.

ivanimal

Hey Tommy Lee.

Love your THICK/BOLD outlines! :thumbsup:
Really dig the ‘TRASH KITTY’. :thumbsup:

Do you have any photos of finished tats to post? ( skin still counts as 2D doesn’t it? :) )
Maybe a FLASH to FINISHED TATTOO comparison?

I don’t have any other comments/input as it would be precocious for me as a lowly apprentice to comment (be seen and not heard-and all that ;) ).
